I have been trying to fix for my Honda Accord 2006 model for sometime now When I start the car and accelerate, i can feel the car is shaking or wobbling from the accelerator (like the car is dancing left and right, I can actually feel it on the accelerator) but after I gain some speed, it stops and drives smoothly, when i slow down and try to accelerate samething happens again I took it to a mechanic, the mechanic said it was the bushing, he changed some bushings, changed downleak, changed breakpad and also changed the hub bearing for both sides But the problem is still there, he later said it was the tire, that I should take it to a vulcanizer, the vulcanizer checked the four tires and said the tires where okay (two different vulcanizers) I don't know if I should buy a car scanner, if the car scanner can be able to detect the fault I don't know what to do, all these mechanic for Benin matter don tire me, them too like trial by error, na so Dem scatter my Benz, sold a whole Benz for scrap for 300k Please what is the issue with the car and can anyone recommend a good Honda mechanic in Benin city |

bosco9: One or more of your tyres could be bad. Have a vulcanizer check it. Finally do alignment on the front wheels. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by bosco9: 8:41am On Mar 04, 2022 |
Structuralman: Two different vulcanizers checked it already I will try a different one again and do the alignment, thank you |

Good morning gurus in the house, I have a Toyota Corolla 2010 I bought straight from Canada. I took the car to a filling station for oil change and the guy there recommended Mobil 20W-50 which I have continued to use 2 more times. I decided to read the car manual and found out I have been using the wrong engine oil as the manufacturers recommended SAE 5W-20 or 0W-20 engine oils. My questions are thus: 1) Do I continue to use the 20W-50 or should change to the manufacturers recommendations 2) If I need to change to manufacturers’ recommendations, what steps or precaution should I take in making the transition back to manufacturer’s recommendation? Thanks as I await your responses. cc: GAZZUZZ autologic dru23 Structuralman Conner44 jceesquare |

HilcomTech:if it was purchased as a tokumbo just go ahead and change it to the recommended oil and keep an eye on your exhaust smoke and oil level 3 Likes |

bosco9 try to change your upper ball joints for both front suspension and not just their bushings. If they are worn out your tyres will wobble 2 Likes |

HilcomTech: If you are going to use high quality oil from good brands like mobil1 and the like , switch to 0w20 or 5w20. If it's those 12k per gallon for synthetic oil you gonna buy, just jeje stay where you are. 2 Likes |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by jceesquare(m): 10:22am On Mar 05, 2022 |
HilcomTech:You can change to the recommended oil as long as it's original. Pay close attention to the oil level and exhaust tip for smoke. Also listen attentively for strange noise from the engine to ensure you're safe with the switch. Thanks. |

stephenponti: Scan threw this code P0121 : Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A/Circuit Range /performance P0123 : Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A/Circuit High P2135 : Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch A / B Voltage Correlation. Sir GAZZUZZ Could this be why my car is having sluggish acceleration, all this while. Please could you suggest the solution. Is it Throttle body issue or throttle pedal? 1 Like |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 7:46pm On Mar 05, 2022 |
stephenponti: could be any of them |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by stephenponti(m): 12:35am On Mar 06, 2022 |
stephenponti: GAZZUZZ: While the car is sluggish in motion, if i shift to neutral and restart the car, then put it on drive it accelerates fine and reverts back to sluggish after few minutes. I wish there is a way to know which is the culprit between the throttle body and pedal sensor as the diagnosis pointed out. |

Good morning house, Happy Sunday. So I have a Camry 2014 xle, which I took to the filling station to refill. the fuel indicator is about to reach the point where it will show warning but it hasn’t gotten there yet. Due to fuel scarcity I told them to fill it with 60.6 liters . Immediately they filled it up I noticed my car won’t accelerate very well. The acceleration is very slow. So I have 3 questions? How much liters can my fuel tank take at max. 2. What could be the cause of the slow acceleration and 3. How can I fix this without taking it to the mechanic. Thanks house. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by frebor(m): 11:16am On Mar 06, 2022 |
haykinzz: 1. Refer to your car manual or Google. (anyone that is going to answer you is going to do the same, hence DIY). 2. Hope say no be bad fuel you buy? 3. Na mechanic (competent one) go fix am last last. 2 Likes |

bosco9:If it only shakes during acceleration. Then your drive shaft maybe the culprit. Get new ones. The mechanic that changed brake pads and hub mustve been drunk |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by nacozee: 5:11pm On Mar 07, 2022 |
Please the gurus in the house Gazzuzz and co, can any of you suggest a good mechanic like you guys that stays in Enugu. There are too many Kazeems here. Abeg make Una help out. |

Surebetodds16:you must be a thief for putting this here, because you know the audience here are men and are trying to lure them via fake financial advert. I don't play bet but I do hear of people funds being withdrawn especially via this sportybet platform. After funding their account then unknowingly the bank card details are still there for the scammer to use to wipe their account.... Something grave will fall on you if this your scam have ever hurt a fellow. Goodbye 2 Likes |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by SpeedRacer(m): 2:46pm On Mar 09, 2022 |
Yesterday i did my first oil change after 6000km of ownership. I wanted to use Pennzoil but this buhari regime has made poverty catch up with me and the extra 5k naira i couldn't afford � From research i found out Canadian corolla doesn't come with the maintenance reminder light so I've decided to keep track manually and change oil and filter every 7 to 8k km. Lastly kazeem was saying the oil was too light, but that's not his fault. I plan to do all repairs myself but he refused to buy the oil filter tool which i gave him money for . I didn't want to try with the locally constructed chain. Please what is the dimension for the tool as i want to order it from ali express and i don't want to get the wrong one.

SpeedRacer: Why Aliexpress? Simply take your new or old filter to any local shop that sells spanners and the likes. You will get a good match. Ignore that kazeem. |
